Eskel loses the duel against Caranthir during the Battle of Kaer Morhen, and Caranthir takes them both through a portal before Ciri can intervene. Yennefer and Ciri are able to rescue Eskel from Tir na Lia soon after, but not before something terrible’s done to him. Now, while joining Yen, Geralt, and Ciri in their fight against the Wild Hunt, Eskel faces another battle different from any he’s fought before.
